Phyllis Mooney is one co-chairs of the Harrisburg Symphony Society's show house and garden committee, which coordinated the Lindenwood tours. For her, being part of the Harrisburg Symphony Society is a chance to support classical music in the area (and the HSO in particular).

It's also a celebration of the arts, with various artists joining forces to support the Symphony. The designers and landscapers aren't the only ones involved, the Susquehanna Valley Plein Air Painters are on site every Saturday and Sunday. The Cumberland County Master Gardeners are at Lindenwood answering gardening questions every Saturday and Sunday from 11 a.m.-1 p.m. and 2-4 p.m. The Harrisburg Youth Orchestra performs every Sunday afternoon.

There are special one-time-only events too. Boutiques The Plum and Ruby Ribbon will be conducting a fashion show on May 31 during a special brunch. Tickets for that are $75. On June 7, Gamut Theatre brings its production of "Troilus and Cressida" to the Lindenwood lawn (tickets for this event are $30 in addition to the house tour fee). There is an Orchid Festival on June 12-14, showcasing the flowers of the Fishing Creek Valley Orchids. Tickets for that are $10.

While the tour is a delight in itself, Mooney's favorite part of Lindenwood has been watching it come to life.

"I love watching it go from an empty house and seeing the designers through the process as they transform the rooms," she said.

And she's excited to share that work with the public.

"All the people we've had working on this - all the hard work is now here for the public to see and appreciate and enjoy," Mooney said. "That's the best part and to know we're raising these funds for the symphony."
